Summary: 5 *, but 1 Rabbi from Philly is holding Torah upside-down!
Comment: Excellent photos and essays covering the full gamut of Rabbinic life; while we all may wonder why this or that Rabbi was not included, we understand that decisions on balance, etc. needed to have been made to list 'only' 100 individuals. The essays are somewhat uneven, although they had an editor, but most of them are poignant, instructive, and often, quite moving. Wonderful idea for a book.

Rating: 3
Summary: Modern Judaism ? All religions are stuck in the Stone Age.
Comment: Spiritual Transcendentalism in the New Millennium is a transcendental philosophy by enlightened spiritualists who apply pure logic and reasoning to support the philosophy of the existence of a superior progressive unified spiritual intelligence (God/Allah) instead of interpreting their inspirations with minds that have been predisposed to subconscious conditioning of a Spiritual Existence that necessitates a dominant spiritual presence. Spiritual Transcendentalists have a goal of bringing rationality, logic and common sense into present day religious beliefs.

Summary: Kitsch
Comment: There are some serious people portrayed in this collection. And some of these rabbis are both well known and rightfully respected. But the emphasis in this tasteless and pretentious coffee-table production is on the off-beat, the publicity-seeking, the "with-it." The photographs are posed productions -- not a grab-shot in the book. More often than not these portraits convey much more megalomania and narcissism than sirituality. Sorry.
